RockShox Dust Seals and Foam Rings

This kit is designed for RockShox forks with 35mm stanchions, specifically the Pike, Lyrik B1, Yari, BoXXer, and Domain Dual Crown models. Always verify your fork's specific model year and stanchion diameter before purchasing, as internal tolerances can vary between generations.

The foam rings sit just below the dust seals and act as a reservoir for suspension oil. They ensure your stanchions remain lubricated throughout your ride, which is essential for reducing friction and maintaining that smooth, plush suspension feel.

For most riders, we recommend replacing your seals and foam rings every 50 to 100 hours of ride time, or at least once a year. If you notice oil weeping on your stanchions or if the fork feels 'sticky' or harsh, it is time for a service regardless of your ride hours.

Yes, you can install these yourself if you have the correct seal driver tool and basic mechanical knowledge. Using a proper seal driver is critical to ensure the seals are seated evenly without damaging the rubber or your fork lowers.

SKF seals are engineered with specific rubber compounds that offer lower friction than standard seals. This results in better small-bump sensitivity and improved durability, helping to keep dirt out while keeping your suspension oil inside where it belongs.
